Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA LOAD BALANCING MODEL USING FIREFLY ALGORITHM IN CLOUD COMPUTINGA. Paulin Florence, V. ShanthiCloud computing is a model that points at streamlining the on-demand provisioning of software, hardware and data as services and providing end-users with flexible and scalable services accessible through the Internet. The main objective of the proposed approach is to maximize the resource utilization and provide a good balanced load among all the resources in cloud servers. Initially, a load … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 15 Feb 2014 · 8,763 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEURISTIC DISCRETIZATION METHOD FOR BAYESIAN NETWORKSMariana D.C. Lima, Silvia M. Nassar, Pedro Ivo R.B.G. Rodrigues et al.Bayesian Network (BN) is a classification technique widely used in Artificial Intelligence. Its structure is a Direct Acyclic Graph (DAG) used to model the association of categorical variables. However, in cases where the variables are numerical, a previous discretization is necessary. Discretization methods are usually based on a statistical approach using the data distribution, such as division by quartiles. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,054 accessesView PDFCite
